Case Study: ACBS (Fidelity Information Services) cuts loan-system operating costs up to 40% and halves development effort with LANSA

Big Banks Cut Costs with LANSA-based Lending System

ACBS, a division of Fidelity Information Services and a LANSA customer since 1991, is a global leader in high-end systems for originating, syndicating, servicing and trading corporate loans, processing over 30% of syndicated loans worldwide for nearly 100 clients including many top-tier banks. Faced with increasing global competition, mergers and the growing complexity of multinational syndicated lending, banks needed a consolidated, efficient loan platform to replace fragmented satellite systems, speed deal pipelining and eliminate costly manual re-keying.

Built with Visual LANSA and driven by business-analyst-led teams, ACBS leverages LANSA’s rapid development, centralized object repository, multi‑lingual support, triggers and platform portability to deliver a flexible, customizable Request Object Architecture and faster time-to-market. The result: smaller development teams, quicker deployments and reliable 24/7 global operations, with customers reporting up to ~40% reductions in loan-system operating costs and rapid, low-risk conversions at major banks such as J.P. Morgan Chase, Scotia Bank and CoBank.
